So just take sim card out Order $25.00 refurbished phone from Amazon install SIM card and I am back on line?Just buy something cheap off Amazon and install your Sim card. Plenty of unlocked phone available, just pick your price.
Had my Motto G for about 4 years, it appears the SIM card is fine despite catastrophic event.Have you looked at the Verizon website? They sell phones of all types. Refurbished and new. I got my Motorola Moto 5 for about $40 in an Verizon box. I have had it at least 2 years, maybe 3.
Looks like bigtanker beat me by seconds, but I agree with him.
As long as the phone is unlocked and is Verizon capable.So just take sim card out Order $25.00 refurbished phone from Amazon install SIM card and I am back on line?
thanks
Found one on Amazon says Verizon unlocked phone. Looks like an older Blackberry. It’s a Prime item so I ordered one. Figured was worth a $25.00 Gamble. Worse comes to worse I can return it.As long as the phone is unlocked and is Verizon capable.
$700 plus that’s a good start on a 1911 lol. I am cheap plus I am hard on things so for me the cheaper the better.With phones switching over to 5G my older Samsung S5 was getting to be a chore to use. I decided to get the newest and greatest Samsung phone available which arguably was the S22+ Plus, 5G which was selling for $1049.00, I searched and found a refurbished one on Amazon for $ 741.00 garranteed for 90 days so I bought it. Supposedly all I had to do was switch my Sim card, WRONG! I'm with Straight Talk and they said I would have to buy a new Sim card as though I was a new customer, so I did.
Then, after $37.50 and an hour and half later after talking with someone I could hardly understand, I finally got my new phone working. The whole thing made me want to throw it out the window. I gave them a "0" on their customer service survey and right a way I got a call back from them with someone who spoke clear American English and she helped me clear up my remaining problems. If it wasn't for their cheaper cost I would have gone to another carrier. Oh well it's working now.
Hope you did not have the misfortune of buying one of their washing machines real pos.I bought my last four off of eBay. Good results, sometimes really good deals. DO YOUR RESEARCH on models, track record, common issues, etc.
There are some defects on a phone you can certainly live with. As long as the screen's not broken and camera fully functional, scratches are just big money savers. I had a couple with a pink line in the screen. They were pretty good waterproof/active phones for less than 100 bucks, flagships two years prior.
Tip - the little bit older flagship phone will have the great features that will make your cheaper phone not seem like junk. I great camera, water resistance, and relative toughness from drops, to go along with the best phone features from two years ago.
Nuther Tip - a cheap silicone cover can not only cover old scratches and protect from new, but will save from a lot of drops. Especially the kind with reinforced corners.
Never say never, but I only buy Samsungs. Kinda like a Glock, tons and tons of online info, accessories, aftermarket parts, etc. Also a big selection and price competition.

DoggyMama smashed her screen the other day and will be needing a new one. Just did a little looking and I'm seeing some that say "Unlocked for all carriers", so those would be good to go, right? We currently have Straight Talk, but I think those all use Verizon now.As long as the phone is unlocked and is Verizon capable.
Better her phone than a Truck, if you want I can let you know how the Amazon phone turns out, supposed to be here tomorrow.DoggyMama smashed her screen the other day and will be needing a new one.

I'm going to need to do more research. When they show the "cellular technology" I'm not sure what we need.Better her phone than a Truck, if you want I can let you know how the Amazon phone turns out, supposed to be here tomorrow.
I believe Graphs and charts will be in order.I'm going to need to do more research. When they show the "cellular technology" I'm not sure what we need.
For example: LTE, GSM, UMTS
Or GSM, WCDMA, UMTS, LTE , etc..
Our Straight Talk is still with AT&T so double check on that.DoggyMama smashed her screen the other day and will be needing a new one.
